I am sure this has existed for a long time. But now it is so blatant and they don’t even try to hide it.

That’s what happens when you allow Mr. Demento Pedo to put unemployed carnival sideshow freaks to work in his Dung Beetle administration. Merry Garland is what you get.

Amending the headline:

"Merrick Garland Is A New Criminal Class."

One should never forget that the "Jewish Laws" under the Third Reich were "legal." Until they weren't. Democrats are playing a very dangerous game here.

My hopes is that they can’t steal this election. Trump wins in such a landslide that they can’t create enough fraudulent ballots. Trump gets in and gets rid of all the higher ups of the FBI and other agencies. Get new young ones in to investigate all these things they have ignored. Trump gets a real leader of the DOJ and investigations go forward. Then we will see barr and garland arrested. I can’t stand what barr did. He knew that laptop would have gotten biden arrested and he knew after the election there was massive fraud. But lied to Trump and all of us and still does. Even though the truth of the laptop is well known now. He laughs about it and likely uses his book sales to launder his payoff. Paid off with your tax payers money.

Stewart Rhodes should be added to that list, he was sentenced to 18 years in prison, not for what he actually did on J6, but because the “judge” didn’t like the things he said, and continues to say.

From Wikipedia:

A native of the Chicago area, Garland attended Harvard University for his undergraduate and legal education. After serving as a law clerk to Judge Henry Friendly of the Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit and Supreme Court Justice William J. Brennan Jr., he practiced corporate litigation at Arnold & Porter and worked as a federal prosecutor in the Department of Justice, where he supervised the investigation and prosecution of the Oklahoma City bombers. Garland was appointed to the D.C. Circuit in March 1997 by President Bill Clinton, and served as its chief judge from 2013 to 2020.

Merrick Brian Garland was born on November 13, 1952, in Chicago. He grew up in the north Chicago border suburb of Lincolnwood.

Garland graduated from Harvard Law in 1977 with a Juris Doctor magna cum laude.

Garland was one of the three principal prosecutors who handled the investigation into Washington, D.C. mayor Marion Barry’s possession of cocaine.

Garland’s responsibilities included the supervision of high-profile domestic-terrorism cases, including the Oklahoma City bombing, Ted Kaczynski (also known as the “Unabomber”), and the Atlanta Olympics bombings.

Garland insisted on being sent to Oklahoma City in the aftermath of the attack, in order to examine the crime scene and oversee the investigation in preparation for the prosecution. He represented the government at the preliminary hearings of the two main defendants, Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols. Garland offered to lead the trial team, but could not because he was needed at the Justice Department headquarters. Instead, he helped pick the team and supervised it from Washington, D.C., where he was involved in major decisions, including the choice to seek the death penalty for McVeigh and Nichols.

Garland has shown a tendency to be deferential to the government in criminal cases, siding with prosecutors in ten of the fourteen criminal cases in which he disagreed with a colleague. For example, in United States v. Watson (1999), Garland dissented when the court concluded a prosecutor’s closing argument was unduly prejudicial, objecting that a conviction should be reversed for only “the most egregious of these kind of errors.” In 2007, Garland dissented when the en banc D.C. Circuit reversed the conviction of a Washington, D.C. police officer who had accepted bribes in an FBI sting operation.

In Americans for Safe Access v. Drug Enforcement Administration (2013), Garland joined a divided court upholding the DEA’s classification of marijuana as a Schedule I drug.

Garland found the arroyo toad was protected by the federal Endangered Species Act. Circuit Judge John Roberts dissented from the denial of rehearing en banc, writing that Congress’s interstate commerce power cannot reach “a hapless toad that, for reasons of its own, lives its entire life in California.

Garland had more federal judicial experience than any other Supreme Court nominee in history, and was the oldest Supreme Court nominee since Lewis F. Powell Jr. in 1971.

In Senate Judiciary Committee confirmation hearings, Garland vowed to oversee vigorous prosecution of those who stormed the United States Capitol, and other domestic extremists, drawing on his experience prosecuting the perpetrators of the Oklahoma City bombing.

The Senate Judiciary Committee voted 15–7 to advance Garland’s nomination to the Senate floor, and on March 10, the Senate confirmed Garland’s nomination by a vote of 70–30.

Garland rescinded a Trump administration policy (imposed by Jeff Sessions) that curtailed DOJ investigations into police department misconduct (”pattern-and-practice” investigations) and restricted the use of consent decrees to reform police departments.

Garland and his wife, Lynn, were married at the Harvard Club in Manhattan in September 1987. Lynn Rosenman Garland’s grandfather, Samuel Irving Rosenman, was a justice of the New York Supreme Court (a trial-level court) and a special counsel to presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt and Harry S. Truman. She graduated from the Brearley School in Manhattan and cum laude from Harvard University, and received a Master of Science degree in operations management from the MIT Sloan School of Management. Her father, Robert Rosenman, was a partner in the New York law firm of Cravath, Swaine & Moore. As of June 2018, she advised government and nonprofit groups on voting systems security and accuracy issues.

Garland and his wife have two daughters, Rebecca and Jessica; both are graduates of Yale University. Justice Elena Kagan hired Jessica Garland, a 2019 graduate of Yale Law School, as one of her law clerks in early July 2020, before Biden’s election and Garland’s appointment, to serve as a law clerk in 2022–2023. The Supreme Court said that “in light of the potential for actual or apparent conflicts of interest,” Jessica Garland will not serve as Kagan’s law clerk while her father remains as attorney general.

Financial disclosure forms in 2016 indicated that Garland’s net worth at the time was between $6 million and $23M. As of 2021, his net worth was estimated by Forbes at $8.6-33M.

It's obvious that when Schumer goes berserk when a Nominee is not Approved by the Senate, there's a reason why.....Garland was NOT Approved for the USSC, and Schumer even lectured us about the complicit "intelligence community" retribution forthcoming.

Two major un-Constitutional inventions that have led to discriminatory Prosecutions:

1) Hate Crimes (there are laws that protect all people, EQUALLY, but now we allow creation of favored-constituency Prosecution with THIS)

2) Plea Bargains-the use of effectively EXTORTING reductions of law-breaking punishments, at the invention of Lawyers and Owned Prosecutors, to allow selective enforcement of Laws, which specify Crimes, but we disregard them and cave to public/paid-for/or wrist-slap deals outside of the Law's intent.

In 1957, in Atlas Shrugged, Ayn Rand perfectly depicted the mentality of Lavrenti Garland and this regime:

https://famguardian.org/Subjects/Taxes/JohnGalt/Excerpt2.htm

Dr. Ferris smiled. . . . . .”We’ve waited a long time to get something on you. You honest men are such a problem and such a headache. But we knew you’d slip sooner or later - and this is just what we wanted.”

“You seem to be pleased about it.”

“Don’t I have good reason to be?”

“But, after all, I did break one of your laws.”

“Well, what do you think they’re for?”

Dr. Ferris did not notice the sudden look on Rearden’s face, the look of a man hit by the first vision of that which he had sought to see. Dr. Ferris was past the stage of seeing; he was intent upon delivering the last blows to an animal caught in a trap.

“Did you really think that we want those laws to be observed?” said Dr. Ferris. “We want them broken. You’d better get it straight that it’s not a bunch of boy scouts you’re up against - then you’ll know that this is not the age for beautiful gestures. We’re after power and we mean it. You fellows were pikers, but we know the real trick, and you’d better get wise to it. There’s no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren’t enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What’s there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced nor objectively interpreted - and you create a nation of law-breakers - and then you cash in on guilt. Now, that’s the system, Mr. Rearden, that’s the game, and once you understand it, you’ll be much easier to deal with.”

Watching Dr. Ferris watch him, Rearden saw the sudden twitch of anxiety, the look that precedes panic, as if a clean card had fallen on the table from a deck Dr. Ferris had never seen before.

What Dr. Ferris was seeing in Rearden’s face was the look of luminous serenity that comes from the sudden answer to an old, dark problem, a look of relaxation and eagerness together; there was a youthful clarity in Rearden’s eyes and the faintest touch of contempt in the line of his mouth. Whatever this meant - and Dr. Ferris could not decipher it - he was certain of one thing: the face held no sign of guilt.

“There’s a flaw in your system, Dr. Ferris,” Rearden said quietly, almost lightly, “a practical flaw which you will discover when you put me on trial for selling four thousand tons of Rearden Metal to Ken Danagger.”

It took twenty seconds - Rearden could feel them moving past slowly - at the end of which Dr. Ferris became convinced that he had heard Rearden’s final decision.

“Do you think we’re bluffing?” snapped Dr. Ferris; his voice suddenly had the quality of the animals he had spent so much time studying: it sounded as if he were baring his teeth.

“I don’t know,” said Rearden. “I don’t care, one way or the other.”

“Are you going to be as impractical as that?”

“The evaluation of an action as ‘practical’, Dr. Ferris, depends on what it is that one wishes to practice.”

“Haven’t you always placed your self-interest above all else?”

If you think we’ll let you get away with a-”

“You will now please get out of here.”

“Whom do you think you’re fooling?” Dr. Ferris’ voice had risen close to the edge of a scream. “The day of the barons of industry is done! You’ve got the goods, but we’ve got the good on you, and you’re going to play it our way or you’ll-”

Rearden had pressed a button; Miss Ives entered the office.

“Dr. Ferris has become confused and lost his way, Miss Ives,” said Rearden. “Will you escort him out please?” He turned to Ferris. “Miss Ives is a woman, she weighs about a hundred pounds, and she has no practical qualifications at all, only a superlative intellectual efficiency. She would never do for a bouncer in a saloon, only in an impractical place, such as a factory.

Miss Ives looked as if she was performing a duty of no greater emotional significance than taking dictation about a list of shipping invoices. Standing straight in a disciplined manner of icy formality, she held the door open, let Dr. Ferris cross the room, then walked out first; Dr. Ferris followed.

She came back a few minutes later, laughing in uncontrollable exultation.

“Mr. Rearden,” she asked, laughing at her fear of him, at their danger, at everything but the triumph of the moment, “what is it you’re doing?”

He sat in a pose he had never permitted himself before, a pose he had resented as the most vulgar symbol of the businessman - he sat leaning back in his chair, with his feet on his desk - and it seemed to her that the posture had an air of peculiar nobility, that it was not the pose of a stuffy executive, but of a young crusader.

“I think I’m discovering a new continent, Gwen,” he answered cheerfully. “A continent that should have been discovered along with America, but wasn’t.”
